Getting it Right: It's All in the Details

Getting it Right: It's All in the Details

When it comes to life: don't sweat the small stuff. When it comes to your home, often it's the small things that matter most – like architectural details.

Deceptive in its simplicity, this window's unadorned façade is offset by wood and brick to become an integrated, geometric whole. A double gabled roofline on one side creates a balanced end point to the house, a sense of completeness. Angular detailing on the chimney top subtly echoes the shapes below.

Like a magic house of mirrors, this dramatic entryway appears to go on forever changing patterns and adornments but always maintaining its graceful arch. On guard in front, a spiny sentry flanked by four junior cacti stands proudly in a sandy island surrounded by inlaid brick walkway – the geometric design a striking contrast to the graceful arches beyond.
